ECAM F/CTL & WHEEL PAGE
The ECAM F/CTL page provides full feedback on all control surfaces. Please note the spoiler/speed brakes
indication is also shown on the ECAM WHEEL page.
PROTECTIONS
The normal law provides complete flight envelope protection:
 Load Factor limitation
o +2.5 g <-> -1.0 g flaps retracted
o +2.0 <-> 0.0 g flaps extended
 Pitch Attitude protection
o 30° nose up in configuration 0 to 3
o 25° nose up in configuration full
o 15° nose down
 Bank Angle protection
o 33° bank angle
o When the sidestick is kept full right or left the aircraft will bank to 67°, when sidestick is
released it bank angle will go back to 30°
 High Angle of Attack protection
o When angle of attack exceeds α protection the High Angle of Attach Protection kicks in. It will
allow AoA to go to α max but not beyond. This protects against stall and windshear. A/P will
disconnect in this mode.
 High speed protection
o When the speed exceeds safe limits the engines will throttle down and when needed, speed
brakes will be deployed.
